Description
Beethoven had well-known fallings out with his one-time teacher, Joseph Haydn, with the piano virtuoso and composer Johann Nepomuk Hummel, the German composer Carl Maria von Weber and the Italian violinist Nicolo Paganini. Conversely, he regarded Franz Schubert positively, praising the latter's compositions on his deathbed. He had never met Schubert, even Schubert lived his whole life in Vienna where Beethoven had moved from Bonn, and Schubert died just a year after Beethoven. Ferdinand Ries was a German composer from Bonn, where he met Beethoven as a boy in his teens. Ries was a friend, pupil and became a secretary of Ludwig van Beethoven. He composed eight symphonies, a violin concerto, eight piano concertos, three operas, and numerous other works in many genres, including 26 string quartets. This playlist begins with his flute sonata. Weber often made use of cyclic techniques (using related thematic material to unify multi-movement works), and the first, second and last movements of this sonata share much in common; the brief and piquant Menuetto capriccioso serves as a delightful interlude. Listen out in particular for the Beethovenian last movement: it possesses the lightness of an 18th century finale and bears a passing resemblance to the Rondo from Beethoven's Spring Sonata.
